answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/11/2017 answer text <p>The Department continues to engage with a wide range of stakeholders on the delivery of the Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy. I met with representatives from the main walking and cycling organisations on 19 September to discuss various matters including how the Department might best benefit from their expertise in delivering the strategy, and have met regularly with Cycling and Walking stakeholders since then. In the light of this discussion, the Department has decided to establish a more informal stakeholder advisory group to ensure that cycling and walking policies are informed by regular dialogue with the relevant organisations. I will be meeting regularly with the group myself so that I can listen to and consider their views.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 03/11/2017 12:41:37 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
